This antisemitism redefinition executive order directs all state agencies to adopt and use the distorted IHRA definition of antisemitism, including its contemporary examples that target advocacy for Palestinian rights. State agencies are required to consider the IHRA definition for the purposes of determining whether an alleged act of discrimination was motivated by antisemitic intent. Additionally, the order requires the IHRA definition to be used as an educational tool for anti-bias training for state personnel.
